DFG to establish 10 new collaborative research centers
Date:12/4/2007

(Host institutions: Charit University Hospital of the Humboldt University Berlin and the Free University of Berlin. Coordinator: Frauke Zipp)

SFB/Transregional Collaborative Research Centre 54 Growth and Survival, Plasticity and Cellular Interactivity of Lymphatic Malignancies will study how cancer cells adapt to their surroundings in patients suffering from diseases of the lymph nodes, thus possibly making it harder or even impossible for them to recover. Participating researchers from Berlin and Munich will combine animal experiments and patient-oriented projects aimed at developing novel therapeutic approaches to diseases such as Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myelomas and other malignant diseases of the lymphatic system. (Host institution: Charit University Hospital of the Humboldt University Berlin and the Free University of Berlin. Coordinator: Bernd Drken)

SFB 754 Climate Biogeochemistry Interactions in the Tropical Oceans will examine a topic that is of great interest in the light of climate change. It will involve oceanographers, geoscientists and microbiologists from Kiel, who will study the distribution of oxygen in tropical oceans. Of particular interest to them is how the oxygen concentration can fall dramatically due to interactions between physical, biological and geochemical processes, and what consequences this has on the nutrient balance in the ocean and on the climate. This research will be carried out with the help of the German research vessels Meteor, Merian and Sonne. (Host university: Christian-Albrechts University, Kiel. Coordinator: Douglas W.R. Wallace)

Surface physics, magnetism, semiconductor physics, materials science and theoretical physics are the common elements of SFB 762 Functionality of Oxidic Interfaces. The researchers involved, from Halle, Leipzig and Magdeburg, will investigate the production of oxide heterostructures and the characterisation of their structural, ferroelectric, magnetic and electro
